Once again, a new year.

Assalamu Alaikum,

So, its 2007 now.

December was so hectic, with all actions usually being frenzied. TDC came and went. I was soo glad when J's night program was finally over. It went very very well, Alhamdulillah. Random people came up to me and said how much fun they had had. That was a great feeling, especially after the hours of hard work and worrying put into it, on J's part (and sorta mine.especially with the questions.) Of course, as usual, there was the occasional naysayer. No doubt, just jealous little twerps.

Then, came Eid. We had a l0t of fun. Prayer was at each local Masjid. I usually hated that, but it was so much fun this time around. J met one of my closest friend's fiance, who was visiting for a week. Later we went to Hina's for brunch... YUMMY. Then, after a long nap..Kemah...No waiting around and selling tickets this time. J won me a bunch of prizes at Kemah from their games. And, of course, I won the age game. He thought I was 20...the closest anyone has ever guessed :) I was quite surprised. Afterwards, we went out to eat at a Mexican restaurant with the MIL. That was pretty fun, since Nora and her sarcastic little friend were there to keep me entertained. At night, we went to Starbucks and got drinks for Hina, Bapee, and us, and went to the Baigs' to hang out.

Wednesday was a party at Naush's. Agreeable experience. Saw some folks I hadn't seen in a while. Stayed till about 1:30 a.m. Yeeeeeeeaaaa...

Me and J FINALLY finished setting up the house. He put up all the stuff, some of what I had bought over EIGHT months ago, and it looks awesome.
He had POKER NIGHT last night, and it was a great success. (Except the spilled pina colada/ sticky carpet.) Tayyab came over to help us clean before the party. Meanwhile, I was at the first of many TRUFFLE PARTIES!! It was fun. We had lessons from Hina, and all made our own. Mine turned out pretty good. We also watched "The Lake House." It was so cute. Although it required a lot of pausing and discussing. Hehe....

Anyways, today started out okay, but my mood quickly soured....along with J's. I don't really want to delve into that right now....since we all feel a little better, but man I AM SOOOOO FRIGGIN PISSED!!!! (Ok i needed to get that out.)

Well, I need to go re-calculate finances for this month...since we kinda overspent on "Groceries" and "Spending Cash"...HEHE. So, I will be heading out now.

Walaikum Assalam.
Peace out.
